[rt-users] Problem with Security of Email Addresses - how to hide auto-complete email addresses from Users
Hi All When a User at one of our clients logs into RT they can only see and create tickets in their own client queue. However when they are Corresponding about a ticket, when they start to type the name of a recipient they can see a list of the email addresses for all users with a similar name. For example: If the User types "john.f" into the One Time CC box, RT "helpfully" gives them a list of all User email addresses starting "john.f" Whilst this feature is really helpful for our internal teams at it enable us to quickly send Correspondence and/or Comments to Users we DO NOT and SHOULD NOT allow one customers to see the email addresses of all of our Users/Customers. I assume we must be missing really easy setting somewhere which prevents this - however I have not been able to find any reference to it so far. If someone could help that would be great as our Data Protection/Security people are rather upset.

Re: [rt-users] SLA Extension change SLA on queue change
Maybe the default only works when the SLA is blank in which case it wouldn’t work when you change queues. I guess you could try having very different names for the SLAs in each queue. -Original Message- From: Nicholas Adams [mailto:nick.adams...@gmail.com] Sent: 27 June 2016 17:24 To: Sally Ainsley Cc: rt-users@lists.bestpractical.com Subject: Re: [rt-users] SLA Extension change SLA on queue change Hi Sally, Thanks for the reply.

Re: [rt-users] Due dates
Hi Steve, Joop, All This is the code we use for the SLAs - it is not perfect and took some trial and error but it is setting appropriate due dates for us . I have had to de-sensitise but hopefully you will be able to follow the ideas. (We have not been able to get any sort of Stop the Clock functionality implemented - there are some previous threads about this but we could not get any to work - to get around this we have introduced a Custom Field called SLA note - our managers can fill this in if the DUE DATE is passed to explain why the issue was not resolved by the DUE DATE - not perfect solution but best we have been able to do so far.) We have TWO different sets of SLAS - each has different business hours. The code below is from our Config file and shows: a) SLA BUSINESS HOURS & HOLIDAY Definitions b) Service Agreements: SLA Default setting - ie if a customer does not set an SLA when entering a ticket we set a default for each queue c) SLA Level definition - We have these level names in two different custom fields called SLA and we apply each custom field to a different Queue - this enable users to see the correct drop down box of SLA Level Options Regards Sally --- Plugin('RT::Extension::SLA'); %RT::ServiceBusinessHours = ( 'SET ONE BH' => { 1 => { Name => 'Monday', Start => '8:30', End => '18:00' }, 2 => { Name => 'Tuesday', Start => '8:30', End => '18:00' }, 3 => { Name => 'Wednesday', Start => '8:30', End => '18:00' }, 4 => { Name => 'Thursday', Start => '8:30', End => '18:00' }, 5 => { Name => 'Friday', Start => '8:30', End => '18:00' }, holidays => [qw(2015-04-03 2015-03-6 2015-05-4 2015-05-24 2015-08-31 2015-12-25 2015-12-26 2016-01-01 2016-03-25 2016-03-28 2016-05-02 2016-05-30 2016-08-29 2016-12-26 2016-12-27 2017-01-02 2017-04-14 2017-04-17 2017-05-01 2017-05-29 2017-08-28 2017-12-25 2017-12-26 )], }, 'SET TWO BH' => { 1 => { Name => 'Monday', Start => '8:00', End => '18:00' }, 2 => { Name => 'Tuesday', Start => '8:00', End => '18:00' }, 3 => { Name => 'Wednesday', Start => '8:00', End => '18:00' }, 4 => { Name => 'Thursday', Start => '8:00', End => '18:00' }, 5 => { Name => 'Friday', Start => '8:00', End => '18:00' }, holidays => [qw(2015-04-03 2015-03-6 2015-05-4 2015-05-24 2015-08-31 2015-12-25 2015-12-26 2016-01-01 2016-03-25 2016-03-28 2016-05-02 2016-05-30 2016-08-29 2016-12-26 2016-12-27 2017-01-02 2017-04-14 2017-04-17 2017-05-01 2017-05-29 2017-08-28 2017-12-25 2017-12-26 )], }, ); %RT::ServiceAgreements = ( Default => 'P3-Low-Major', QueueDefault => { 'Customer One'=> 'P5- Minor (Single User)_SET ONE', 'Customer Two' => ' P4-Minor-SET2', }, Levels => { 'N/A-Info-SET ONE' => { BusinessHours => 'SET ONE BH', Resolve => { BusinessMinutes => 60*200, IgnoreOnStatuses => ['stalled'], ['Client'], ['3rdParty'], ['Resolved'] } }, 'P5-Minor-SingleUser-SET ONE' => { BusinessHours => 'SET ONE BH', Resolve => { BusinessMinutes => 60*28.5 } }, 'P4-Low-MultipleUsers-SET ONE' => { BusinessHours => 'SET ONE BH', Resolve => { BusinessMinutes => 60*12 } }, 'P3-Medium-SignificanCustomer Four-SET ONE' => { BusinessHours => 'SET ONE BH', Resolve => { BusinessMinutes => 60*8 } }, 'P2-MajorFault-PartialLoss-SET ONE' => { Resolve => { RealMinutes => 60*6 } }, 'P1-CriticalFault -TotalLoss-SET ONE' => { Resolve => { RealMinutes => 60*4 } }, #CUSTOMERTWO 'N/A-Info-SET2' => { BusinessHours => 'SET TWO BH', Resolve => { BusinessMinutes => 60*200 } }, 'P4-Minor-SET2' => {
Re: [rt-users] Due dates
Hi We have managed this by setting up different SLAs for different queues. It was really fiddly and took lots of trial and error but we now have 5 different sets of SLAS - we have default 1 and default 2 which apply to the majority of our Queues and then I have 3 bespoke ones. Each SLA set has a different set of "business hours" and 4 or 5 SLA levels. Each level sets a due date based on the business or real hours defined within the SLA level. We have 5 SLA custom fields each with the defined SLA levels -each Custom field has to be called "SLA" but then within each we have different names for the levels defined the thing you have to ensure is that each SLA level has a unique name. We define the correct SLA for each QUEUE set by allocating the relevant SLA Custom Field. Does that help - or do you need to see some examples?

Re: [rt-users] View dashboard of another user who's searches depend on __CurrentUser__
Hi Woody Not sure what your overall goal is however I have put our staff into GROUPS based on the teams they are in. We then have searches that are for _CurrentUser_ as well as other searches that are based on OWNERGROUP = x. We then have saved searches visible to each GROUP so that they can see tickets assigned to their team - this means that if a member of staff if off others in that team can pick up the work. Works well when team managers are away also.

If someone is away, i would like someone else to be able to see the dashboard of the absent person. I don't want to give them the absent user's login, nor do i want to create searches for each user that are hardwired to their username. Something like www.myrt.com/dashboards/12345/Dashname/Username would do the job whereby __CurrentUser__ is replaced by "Username" and not the person who's actually logged in. I can see in lib/RT/Tickets.pm in sub _parser the line # replace __CurrentUser__ with id $value = $self->CurrentUser->id if $value eq '__CurrentUser__'; and in lib/RT/Search/Simple.pm sub HandleOwner { if (!$_[2] and $_[1] eq "me") { return owner => "Owner.id = '__CurrentUser__'"; } elsif (!$_[2] and $_[1] =~ /\w+@\w+/) { return owner => "Owner.EmailAddress = '$_[1]'"; } else { return owner => "Owner = '$_[1]'"; } } So i think that a hack is needed somewhere there, and when the url is parsed the extra username field assigned to a variable that can be used in those subs. I can't find however where sub HandleOwner is called from since that's the only time it appears in the code!

Re: [rt-users] Can I use % wildcard within Query Builder on QUEUES?
Hi Matt and Byron Many thanks for your input I think I have a work around. I tried the LIKE option in the Advanced button at the top of the page but I get the horrid red "Couldn't parse query" error that Matt described in the email trail. So for some reason whilst LIKE works with Fields like Requestor.EmailAddress field (as per Byron's email) it does not work on QUEUE. I have therefore reviewed the options within the QUERY BUILDER where 'matches' is a drop down option. There is a long list of fields where this would work (not just REQUESTOR) and one of these is QueueAdminCC. So what I have done is created a Test User in RT and put this Test User as the QueueAdminCC for my Queues which have a name with "UAT "in them. I can then write Queries with the QUERY BUILDER or the ADVANCED BUTTON that include [QueueCc.Name LIKE 'test'] as one of the rules to get all my UAT Queues This is not ideal but I can now write queries to select several queues that I will not need to update each time we add a new Queue - I will simply update our internal instructions so that when new Queues are set up them up with the Test user in the QueueAdminCC field.

If it were to work, "LIKE" would be the operator. However, I don't think it will work. If you look at the Search Builder page, there is only "is" and "isn't" in the drop down for building the Queue predicate.

[rt-users] FW: SLA DUE DATE RESETS ON STATUS CHANGE
Hello I have set up a range of SLAs which work reasonable well ie setting a DUE DATE based on level of SLA and defined hours of support However if we over-ride the DUE DATE (because of client interaction/agreement) and then the STATUS of a ticket changes afterwards, RT automatically changes the DUE DATE back to the original. Is this expected behaviour? Is there anything I can do to make the manual over-ride due date remain on the ticket? We have the following statuses initial => [ 'new' ], active => [ 'open', 'stalled', '3rd-party', 'client', 'development', 'testing', 'release' ], inactive=> [ 'resolved', 'rejected', 'deleted' ], and in terms of SLA time should not be 'counted down' if the status is Stalled/ 3rd Party/ Client/ testing. We have tried introducing "IgnoreStatuses" for these statuses within the SLA Config file but could not get that to work either Has anyone got 'IgnoreStatuses2 to work? Or how else to people deal with a stop the clock function? Many thanks S Ainsley
